Strictly Vetted Dealers

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.

Secure Transit

Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.

The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

During the nineteenth century, rosewood workboxes and fitted dressing cases were crafted to store sewing accoutrements, vanity items, grooming tools, or writing accessories. They functioned as portable, lockable storage units kept in bedrooms or private drawing rooms.

These boxes were predominantly constructed from dense hardwoods such as rosewood, mahogany, or walnut, often decorated with brass or mother of pearl inlay. Interior compartments were typically lined with silk, velvet, or leather and held glass, pewter, or silver-plated containers.

Authentic period pieces exhibit hand-cut dovetail joints, original brass hinges, period locks, and natural hand-carved inlay work. The interior glass bottles and metal lids often show evidence of period manufacturing techniques and age-appropriate wear.

A fitted workbox can be displayed open on a sideboard, desk, or dressing table to showcase the interior craftsmanship and containers. It can also function as a decorative storage vessel on open shelving or a console table.

Keep the box away from direct sunlight and extreme humidity changes to prevent the timber from warping or splitting. Dust the exterior gently with a microfibre cloth and avoid harsh chemical cleaners on mother of pearl inlay or textile linings.
